336. Chapter 336: Cultivation Breakthrough, The Planets All Transforming

After arranging the affairs of Douluo Planet, Jerry brought the Soul Guidance Devices refined over this past year to the Fourth Planet.

Upon arriving at the Fourth Planet, the entire planet was a gray, hazy expanse; because its distance from the Sun was much farther than that of Douluo Planet, the temperature of the entire planet was relatively cold.

Once the Earth Core of the Fourth Planet was ignited, the temperature of the entire planet would rise somewhat, but if one wanted to reach the same temperature as Douluo Planet, the heat emitted by the Earth Core would need to be controlled slightly.

In other words, the ocean area of the Fourth Planet would be somewhat smaller than that of Douluo Planet. Based on the ratio of ocean to land on the Second Planet and Douluo Planet, Jerry made an estimation: the ratio of ocean area to land area on the Fourth Planet should be 6:4.

After all, after the Second Planet was transformed into a Life Planet, the ratio of ocean area to land area was 8:2, while for Douluo Planet, it was 7:3.

If calculated according to the distance from the Sun, the ocean and land areas of the nine planets were easy to figure out.

The closer to the Sun, the higher the temperature and the larger the ocean area; the farther away, the lower the temperature and the smaller the ocean area.

Inferring from this, the ratio of ocean to land area on the First Planet should be 9:1, the Fifth Planet 5:5, the Sixth Planet 4:6, the Seventh Planet 3:7, the Eighth Planet 2:8, and the Ninth Planet 1:9.

The farther from the Sun, the lower the temperature; most of the Earth Core's temperature is used to raise the planet's temperature, so less ocean surface area is needed for heat dissipation.

The distances between the nine planets are not equidistant, so the ratios would fluctuate slightly above or below Jerry's inferred proportions, but the range of change is not large, and with Jerry's powerful Divine Sense, fine-tuning is very convenient.

After the rough data was inferred, Jerry prepared to begin igniting the Fourth Planet.

Jerry can now perform Material Transformation, so using the transformation ability to directly open a passage to the Earth Core is very fast.

999 clones began digging simultaneously, and very quickly, the required tunnel was opened.

Now, one clone can transform enough soul power for one hundred Water Converters. With 999 clones and 99,900 Water Conversion Soul Guidance Devices activated simultaneously, in one day, a small area of ocean appeared on the surface of the Fourth Planet.

Calculating based on an ocean-to-land ratio of 6:4, it would take about two months; this is much faster than the previous transformation of the Second Planet. After all, there is experience now, and Jerry's own strength has also greatly improved, so the transformation time will be much shorter.

Two months passed quickly, and 60% of the Fourth Planet's surface had become ocean; because of the temperature, many places were covered in Ice Attribute.

Once the Earth Core is ignited, some of this ice will melt.

Everything was ready, and Jerry went directly to the Earth Core. Just like the operation for igniting the Second Planet, the Earth Core Space of the Fourth Planet was quickly ignited.

Next, it was just a matter of waiting for the natural changes of the Earth Core.

As the temperature of the Earth Core rises, it will begin to transform the soil layers of the Fourth Planet. These are all completed autonomously; Jerry only needs to monitor the temperature of the entire planet.

However, this change needs to last for a long time because the size of the Fourth Planet and the ratio of ocean to land are different from the Second Planet, so the time for natural changes is also different.

Jerry can only be a spectator during this process of change and has no way to help.

Now, whether Jerry is present or not makes no difference; only after the natural changes are complete can the next step of the transformation be carried out.

Leaving one clone to monitor the Fourth Planet, Jerry prepared to go transform the other planets.

Regardless of whether the previous guesses were correct, the transformed planets could also serve as new places to live.

Moreover, many resources are born during the development process of every new Life Planet.

As the cultivation levels of Spirit Masters on Douluo Planet get higher and higher, resources will sooner or later be insufficient. Jerry cannot always rely on his own transformation ability to help them, so having a few more Life Planets can provide more resources.

In the blink of an eye, ten years passed.

In these ten years, except for the Ninth Planet, all other planets had transformed into Life Planets.

When the Fourth Planet transformed into a Life Planet, it also confirmed Jerry's guess: the number of Life Planets affects the advancement speed of Life Planets within the star system.

This speed of improvement is doubled. Assuming the original natural advancement speed of Douluo Planet was 1, after the Second Planet became a Life Planet, the natural advancement speed of both Douluo Planet and the Second Planet became 2. After the Fourth Planet transformed into a Life Planet, the natural advancement speed of all three Life Planets became 3.

Until the Eighth Planet transformed into a Life Planet, the advancement speed of all planets became 8.

The Ninth Planet still needs about a month for the atmosphere to finish forming, at which point the natural advancement speed of all nine planets will become 9.

With 9 times the natural advancement speed, plus Jerry's artificial help, the time for Douluo Planet's third advancement is likely not far off.

Jerry inferred that after Douluo Planet's third advancement, the concentration of soul power between heaven and earth will reach one thousand times, roughly on par with the God Realm, and the cultivation ceiling will be broken through once again.

After the ceiling is broken, the cultivation speed below will become even faster.

A month passed quickly, and the Ninth Planet successfully transformed into a Life Planet.

The moment the Ninth Planet transformed into a Life Planet, the entire star system suddenly became active, and the active soul power in the universe suddenly increased; the active soul power in the same region reached 9 times the original amount.

The Sun in the middle of the star system seemed to become more scorching as the soul power in the universe increased.

Jerry faintly felt that the Sun seemed to be slowly growing larger, and the energy it released was also increasing. Under this invisible energy, all nine planets were undergoing changes.

Jerry took out the plant seeds he had collected and, with a single thought, scattered them across the entire Ninth Planet.

The Life Rule was activated directly, and all the seeds began to take root and sprout. In one day, the land of the entire planet became lush and green.

When Jerry stopped using the Life Rule, he unexpectedly discovered that the growth speed of these plants was much faster than normal.

The Ninth Planet had just transformed into a Life Planet, and the soul power concentration of the entire planet was at its initial stage; at this stage, plant growth should be slow.

But the situation now was different; the natural growth speed of the plants had actually reached the same speed as on Douluo Planet.

One must know that the soul power concentration on Douluo Planet is now at one hundred times. For the growth speed to be the same despite a hundredfold difference in soul power concentration, this had not occurred when the other planets transformed into Life Planets previously.

It seems that after all nine planets in the star system transformed into Life Planets, a special reaction occurred; not only is the Sun changing, but every planet is also changing.

Jerry cannot see the result of this change yet, but Jerry has a premonition that it is changing in a good direction.

After the Ninth Planet became a Life Planet, Jerry took out 100,000 Soil Converters. As these Soil Converters started, a large amount of soul power between heaven and earth was converted into soil, then transported to the Earth Core, where it was successfully fused with the planet after being calcined by the high temperature of the Earth Core.

Under the ninefold advancement speed, plus the energy transmitted by the Sun and the conversion of a large amount of soil and water, the Ninth Planet successfully advanced once in just two months.

As the Ninth Planet successfully advanced, the Sun of the Douluo Star System suddenly erupted with a burst of intense light, illuminating all nine planets into daylight.

The daylight was so bright that people could not even open their eyes. Even Jerry could only use his Divine Sense to perceive everything around him; everywhere his eyes could see was a vast whiteness, as if the whole world had shed its colors, leaving only pure, flawless white.

The daylight lasted for a day and a night before slowly dissipating, and the entire Douluo Star System returned to its original colors.

However, under Jerry's Divine Sense perception, the advancement speed of the Ninth Planet had increased; the original ninefold natural advancement speed had now doubled, directly becoming an eighteenfold improvement speed.

This change stunned Jerry. Subsequently, Jerry checked every planet, and the natural advancement speed of all planets had increased to eighteen times.

Why did it double?

Jerry suddenly thought that before the doubling, the Ninth Planet had successfully advanced once.

After thinking it over, this was the only change.

Jerry felt that the nine planets and the Sun seemed to be a single entity.

From the beginning, for every Life Planet that appeared, the advancement speed increased by onefold, until all nine planets transformed into Life Planets, and the natural advancement speed naturally increased to ninefold.

The increase from ninefold to eighteenfold was because the Ninth Planet successfully advanced once.

It is precisely because the Ninth Planet successfully advanced once, which is equivalent to the nine planets as a whole advancing once; if the base number before advancement was one, then the current base number has become two—nine planets, two nines are eighteen—only this explanation passes in Jerry's deductions.

If this is the case, the advancement speed of the entire star system can still be increased.

Now that Douluo Planet has advanced twice, if the other eight planets all advance twice, the base number will become three, and at that time, the natural advancement speed of the planets within the star system will become twenty-seven-fold.

With a twenty-seven-fold natural advancement speed, plus Jerry's help, Douluo Planet will soon be able to undergo its third advancement.

However, this deduction still requires the other eight planets to advance.

The second advancement of the eight planets will take quite a lot of time.

Relying on Jerry alone would consume too much time.

The only ones who can help Jerry are the Silver Dragon King, the Elf Queen, and the Fairy Queen.

Because of her own reasons, the Silver Dragon King's upper limit will be lower, while the Fairy Queen and the Elf Queen do not have this issue.

During this period, they have been in Cultivation, and Jerry prepared to go and check on the progress of their Cultivation.

Soon, Jerry arrived at the Second Planet, and after finding the three of them, he spoke with them about the recent situation and simultaneously asked about their Cultivation progress.

The Fairy Queen and the Elf Queen are considered symbiotic, and their level of Cultivation is the same; their Divine Soul has reached 9 million points, and it is estimated that after cultivating for a while longer, they will reach the limit of the world.

When the Silver Dragon King's Divine Soul cultivated to 6 million points, it could no longer be improved; inferring from this, the Divine Soul of the Dragon God's true body should be 3.99 million points.

After all, if the Dragon God's true body had a high Divine Soul, the Silver Dragon King would not have been able to cultivate to 6 million points.

It seems that the current Silver Dragon King is already far stronger than the true body; when they meet the true body in the future, it is estimated that the true body will only be destined to be devoured.

Divine Soul, God Body, and Rule—Jerry is advancing all three simultaneously; relatively speaking, his personal strength is something the Fairy Queen and the others cannot compare to.

The Spirit Masters of Douluo Planet have limits to both their Divine Soul and body, and breaking these limits is too difficult, so Jerry only teaches them knowledge regarding the Cultivation of Rules; as for the Divine Soul and body aspects, it is better to let them wait step-by-step for the World Advancement and then cultivate.

The Silver Dragon King, the Fairy Queen, and the Elf Queen have all broken their limits, so their Divine Soul can be cultivated up to a maximum of 9.99 million points; however, the advancement of the God Body is a bit dangerous, and before Jerry sorts out a safe and stable method of advancement, their God Bodies remain at the Third Layer realm.

The Fourth Layer realm, Circulation Transformation, has a dangerous advancement process and also requires one to personally comprehend the state of Heaven and Man as One.

This is somewhat indescribable; every time Jerry wants to speak it out, it reaches his lips but he cannot say it.

It is as if there is some kind of restriction, which reminds Jerry of a saying: "The Dharma cannot be lightly imparted." With Jerry's current strength, he still cannot speak it out.

Therefore, Jerry can only give up for now; when he improves again in the future and his strength becomes greater, he might be able to ignore this Rule, and at that time, he will be able to impart some of it.

As for the Rules, the Rules of the eight basic attributes, without the interference of world consciousness, have all been comprehended to a perfect 100% by the four of them: Jerry, the Silver Dragon King, the Fairy Queen, and the Elf Queen.

Besides this, Jerry has also comprehended the four Rules of Time, Space, Creation, and Destruction to a perfect 100%.

Only the two Rules of Death and Life, after being comprehended to 60%, could not progress further.

Constantly transforming planets has also delayed Jerry's breakthrough; this time, he is prepared to make plans after breaking through to the World Realm.

Constructing a world is simple; after all, Jerry had previously constructed a Small World in the outside world.

For the World Realm, others construct it within the Divine Soul Space, but Jerry constructs it based on his Sea of Consciousness.

Jerry's Sea of Consciousness is already different, containing the sun, moon, and stars; now, all he needs to do is construct a world, and furthermore, after Jerry constructs the world, it will immediately be illuminated by the sun, moon, and stars—a situation that others would likely only see once they reach the Galaxy Realm that Jerry previously deduced.

This means that Jerry possesses things at the World Realm that are only available at the Galaxy Realm, and correspondingly, he should also be able to use some abilities of the Galaxy Realm.

As Jerry's Divine Soul stirred, various soul power between heaven and earth began to gather toward Jerry's Sea of Consciousness, and under Jerry's control, a planet was quickly constructed.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Jerry: could the Earth Core of this planet in his Sea of Consciousness be ignited?

However, this thought was just a passing idea; he cannot try it recklessly now. If he wants to try, he should wait until he reaches the Galaxy Realm in the future, when there are full planets in the Sea of Consciousness space, and like the Douluo Star System, they can connect with each other and the Rules are running, then he can go and try to ignite the Earth Core.

If it can be ignited, this means that the Galaxy Realm will have nine small levels. In the Sea of Consciousness star system, each advancement of a Life Planet counts as one small level.

This level is the same as the level of advancement Jerry deduced for the Douluo Star System.

Jerry deduces that after all the planets of the Douluo Star System advance nine times, new changes might appear; nine nines are eighty-one, and if one advancement of each planet is equivalent to one tribulation, the Douluo Star System should undergo new changes after experiencing eighty-one tribulations.

However, this is still too far away for Jerry, and currently, it is just a deduction; it can only be verified as time passes.

In Jerry's Sea of Consciousness, after the planet construction was completed, it floated motionless in Jerry's Sea of Consciousness, and the planet was also in a state of dead silence.

This is slightly different from what Jerry previously deduced.

Jerry tried to sow seeds on the planet, but these seeds could not grow on their own; even if Jerry used the Life Rule to make the seeds take root and sprout, as soon as Jerry disconnected the Life Rule, these plants immediately withered and died.

It seems that a world is not so easy to create.

It requires the planet to have its own orbital trajectory before it can slowly advance into a Life Planet.

With the completion of this planet's construction, Jerry also felt that he had finally broken through to the World Realm.

If levels were to be divided, Jerry should currently be considered at the first level of the World Realm.

Afterward, he needs to construct nine more worlds to advance to the ninth level of the World Realm, and then try to get the nine planets running.

As Jerry broke through to the World Realm, the first thing to break through was Jerry's Divine Soul; the Divine Soul broke through from 9.99 million points directly to 10 million points. Although it was only a difference of ten thousand points, it opened the door to a new world.

Thinking of this, Jerry immediately began to construct a second planet, but just as he started, he felt that his Divine Soul was somewhat insufficient and he could not fully control two planets.

Jerry had no choice but to give up constructing the second planet and then began to cultivate his Divine Soul.

With Jerry's cultivation, the Faith Power that had previously been lurking in Jerry's God Body appeared again, and his Divine Soul also began to grow rapidly.

It seems that apart from not being able to break the limit, the accelerating effect of Faith Power on cultivation is indeed astonishing.

The Faith Power was continuously consumed until it was exhausted; when there was no more Faith Power in Jerry's body, Jerry stopped his cultivation and checked his Divine Soul—the Divine Soul had reached 14 million points directly.

It seems that when he dissipated the world consciousness before, the Faith Power he obtained was indeed quite a lot.

Thinking of this, Jerry even felt a bit tempted to cause a few more disasters and then go save the masses himself.

However, in the end, Jerry resisted this Evil God King-like thought; he cannot harm others for the sake of his own cultivation—how would that be any different from an Evil Soul Master? Jerry's moral bottom line does not allow him to do so.

Then he will just collect it slowly; anyway, his lifespan is basically infinite now, and he has plenty of time.

Moreover, the population of Douluo Continent is too small; if the number of people were to increase tenfold or hundredfold, there would certainly be plenty of Faith Power then.

Thinking of this, Jerry dispatched a clone back to Douluo Planet and issued a new policy, encouraging and supporting the common people to have more children; having more children would not only be rewarded, but the rewards would also be huge and attractive.

Otherwise, with these Spirit Masters cultivating day in and day out and not reproducing, it would be very difficult for the population of Douluo Planet to grow.

The Soul Beasts on the Second Planet cannot be overlooked either; their numbers must also be increased. Soul Beasts are different from humans; some Soul Beasts can give birth to over a dozen offspring at once, so if Soul Beasts want to increase their numbers, they can do so faster than humans.

It is just that many Soul Beasts fear that their strength will decline after giving birth, so they are unwilling to easily conceive offspring.

Most Soul Beasts only think about reproducing when they reach the limit of their Cultivation or when their time is running out; this mindset must be changed for them.

Therefore, rewards also need to be offered. These rewards can not only help Soul Beasts with their postpartum Recovery, but also allow their strength to advance further. In this way, with these guarantees, these Soul Beasts will no longer fear reproducing.

If this is the case, within a few years, I believe the number of Soul Beasts on the Second Planet will be able to catch up to the number of humans on Douluo Planet.

With this two-pronged approach, it will be possible to obtain more Faith Power by then.

It is not that Jerry is not working hard at his Cultivation; it is just that Faith Power is too tempting. (End of chapter)
